A Prospective Case-Control Study Analyzes 12 Thrombophilic Gene Mutations in Turkish Couples with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss
(WILEY, 2010)
Problem Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a heterogeneous disorder. The contribution of specific thrombophilic genes to the pathophysiology of RPL has remained controversial. We evaluated the prevalences of 12 thrombophilic ...
eNOS G894T Polymorphism and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2010)
Background: The genetic risk factors that contribute to the risk of developing abdominal aortic aneurysm ( AAA) are poorly understood. We assessed the association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase ( eNOS) gene polymorphism ...
Tissue specific epigenetic silencing of the distinct tumor suppressor genes in lung cancer
(ACADEMIC JOURNALS, 2010)
The role of aberrant methylation of the cytosine-guanine dinucleotide islands in the promoter region of tumor suppressor genes in lung cancer development is increasingly recognized. DNAs extracted from cancer tissue biopsies ...
A Frame-Shift Mutation in the SLC34A2 Gene in Three Patients with Pulmonary Alveolar Microlithiasis in an Inbred Family
(JAPAN SOC INTERNAL MEDICINE, 2010)
Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) is a rare disease characterized by the presence of small calculi in the alveolar space. The SLC34A2 is thought to be responsible for the disease. We encountered three siblings of an ...
